"Take your medicine." Ding Yiyi put the medicine in front of him. Looking at the person in front of her whose face was extremely bad, she suddenly thought of Ye Nianmo. He thought she was the same and refused to take the medicine no matter what, making her worry every time.

Thinking of this, her voice softened, "Take your medicine, it won't be good if you don't."

"These pills are useless." Derek said in a rough voice, but he still received the pill and drank it all in one gulp.

After eating the medicine, he wanted to place the cup back down, but the lower half of his body couldn't move at all. His originally relaxed expression once again darkened.

"Let me do it." Ding Yiyi took the cup and poured another glass of water, placing it where he could reach for it. She went to the bathroom to change into a clean, soft towel and placed it on the back of his hand.

Derek looked at her silently. Then, he left without a care for her. His gaze followed her back, and the emotions inside were so complicated that others couldn't understand it.

The next day, Derek appeared in the study room. Although his face was still pale and haggard, his mental strength had obviously improved a lot.

He was sitting on the windowsill with a thick book open on his lap, and a young man was reporting behind him.

Derek's gaze moved away from the book. His pale, skinny fingers touched the paper and spoke with a raised voice, "Oh?"

"It should be Chinese. They are very good at investigating. Most of the supermarkets under our control have been investigated."

The young man looked at Derek's skinny back as he waited for his orders. He only saw him close the book and look out of the window with a focused gaze.

"Leave it for now." He finally said, "Dongqing, you're Chinese too."

"Yes." The person called Dong Qing replied coldly.

He waited, but today the man in the wheelchair seemed even more unfathomable, and he continued to stare out the window. "It's all right."

Outside the window, a bird flew to the window as if Derek's thin fingers were dead wood. It actually flew to his fingers and wanted to peck.

Derek waved his hand and the bird flew away, "There's something I need you to do, but now is not the time."

"Yes, Mr. Derek." Dongqing knew that this was the sign of the end of the conversation. He saw Derek keep looking out the window, so he took a glance before turning around. Then, his pupils slightly dilated. It's her?

After they left, Derek pressed the button and the wheelchair automatically rose to a higher altitude. The wheel turned towards the window and everything that happened outside could be seen clearly.

Ding Yiyi was astounded as she looked at the huge beast farm in front of her. The beast farm was hundreds of meters wide, but its height was less than two meters. The tiger was walking leisurely in the field.

A servant carried a bundled antelope to the animal farm, loosened its claws, and threw it in.

The tiger roared and ran back to the antelope. Both the predator and prey had started their intense pursuit and servants seemed to be used to it, they left the scene far away, afraid that the tiger would bite their necks off like it was biting an antelope.

Ding Yiyi stared at the arena. The tiger had won and was currently enjoying delicious food. Next to Ding Yiyi's feet was a bucket of excellent meat from the spine. It was meant to be a snack for the tiger.

She picked up a piece of meat the size of a man's palm and unconsciously drooled. God knows how long she had been eating vegetarian food.

As if it felt that someone was coveting its food, the tiger roared in her direction as if warning her.

She took a step back and walked forward unhappily, "Stingy! I can't just watch!"

The tiger glanced at her, turned its body to face her, and then closed its eyes.

Feeling despised by an animal, Ding Yiyi felt hurt and went back to her room dejectedly.

At dinner time, she looked at the steak on her plate and asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

"I don't know, as instructed by the Head Supervisor." The servants were especially polite today, bowing to Ding Yiyi even after the food had been laid out, with respect in their demeanor.

As Ding Yiyi was eating her steak, she thought about what Derek wanted to do. Suddenly, her heart lit up. Did this mean that he no longer wanted to keep her?

After lunch, she immediately went to the cafeteria. Sure enough, she saw Derek gracefully eating. Although there were a lot of dishes on the table, they were all vegetarian.

Upon seeing Ding Yiyi, he merely paused for a moment before continuing to chew.

"Derek, I have something to tell you." Ding Yiyi walked up to him and calmly looked at him.

Derek put down the fork in his hand and frowned, "What smell do you have?"

Ding Yiyi sniffed and said, "Nothing."

"Take her to the bathroom," he ordered, his brow still furrowed.

"No need!" Ding Yiyi said angrily as she turned to leave.

When she returned to her room, she sniffed herself again. Only then did she remember that she had eaten some meat. Derek didn't like that taste.

She lied on the bed and thought about Ye Nianmo. When would she be able to go out?

In a large supermarket on the streets of Rome, a man was sitting in a chair in front of the supermarket for resting. Even with his sunglasses on, one could guess the handsome face of this man from the sharp corners of his face. He held a newspaper in his hand, seeming to read earnestly.

"Derek, his father was the first businessman to develop in Rome. The supermarket owned by his father spread throughout the whole of Rome. Half a year ago, Derek's father passed away. He obtained several hundred million as a legacy."

Ye Bo stood in the sunlight and reported to the expressionless man. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Would that woman called Asimaa be lying?"

"Nope." Ye Nianmo put down the newspaper in his hand and stood up. Suddenly, he looked across the street and frowned.

"Young Master?" Ye Bo watched him walk down the street in big strides. His gaze fell onto the newspaper on the chair, "The Roman police are raiding an underground pornographic place late at night, and the identity of the informant is unknown."

At the other end of the street, a hot dog cart stood tall, with people constantly stopping to buy it. The shop owner skillfully divided the hot dog into two and handed it over to the customer in a paper bag.

Ye Nianmo looked at where he was standing. Was he mistaken? That person was clearly standing here?

There was a steady stream of people around him. He stood, pursing his lips as if thinking about something, and not far away, next to a red brick building, a man put on his cap and hurried away with his head lowered.

Ding Yiyi had seen Asimaa's picture in the newspaper. The main theme of the newspaper was that the place where she was kidnapped had been destroyed. Was this a coincidence or was it someone deliberately manipulating her?

She put down the newspaper in her hands, walked out into the sunlight, and headed straight for the Beast Taming Field.

When Timo saw her now, he wouldn't grimace at her, instead, he just sat in the shade of the tree with his butt out and ignored her.

Ding Yiyi also often brought a book with her to sit under the tree. The book was taken from Derek's study and he tacitly accepted this matter.

The servant who had been feeding them seemed to come rather late. Timo was walking in the garden, a little distracted.

By the time the servant arrived, it had already jumped over the wall, unable to wait any longer.

When Ding Yiyi saw that the two servants were both dressed in casual clothes, she asked curiously. There was actually a parade at the Rome junction today. People could wear different kinds of clothes that they liked.

All the servants in the manor were on vacation today. Even Ali had to take a holiday for the night under Derek's insistence, leaving only the chef to cook.

When it was time for dinner, Ding Yiyi looked at the dishes in front of her and suddenly brought her plate to the dining hall.

As she expected, the restaurant was usually full of people, but now, only Derek was there. Even though the restaurant was brightly lit, only the sound of knives and forks could be heard.

When he saw her, his expression didn't change, but when he saw that she was carrying a steak, his face immediately turned cold, and he rang the bell as if he wanted to be thrown out.

"No one will take me to shower today. Everyone will be gone." Ding Yiyi suddenly realized that this Derek didn't seem to be a bad person. He was the one who ordered people to give her meat, but the one who couldn't take it anymore was still him.

Derek stopped what he was doing, and pointed with his fork at the one furthest away from the long table, "Go over there."

Ding Yiyi could tell that he really didn't like meat, so she obediently sat at the other end of the long table.1

After a short period of silence, Ding Yiyi took a bite of her steak and said, "We can talk properly."

Derek frowned and glanced at her, then put down the fork in his hand, "What do you want to say?"

"You can tell me your purpose. You didn't keep me here because you wanted a wife." Ding Yiyi said confidently.

He picked up the red wine and lightly shook his finger, letting the wine slam against the wall. "Why do you say that?"

Ding Yiyi's face was slightly flushed, but the lights in the restaurant were not enough to cover her blush. The man had been very honest with her ever since the first time they had met, never going to her room again, so she speculated that he must have had his reasons for marrying his wife frequently. Of course, she would not say these things out loud.

He looked away, but his expression suddenly turned strange. "Don't you know?"

"Know what?" Ding Yiyi looked at him strangely, not knowing what he meant.

"Nothing." Derek coughed lightly. At this moment, a loud firework sound attracted the two's attention.

The colorful fireworks were reflected in the glass window, and the sound of people cheering could still be heard.

Ding Yiyi looked outside the window with a bit of yearning. Hearing the sound of the wheelchair sliding, she stood up and watched Derek preparing to leave.

"Do you want to go see the fireworks?" By the time Ding Yiyi realized what she had said, it was already too late.

The wheelchair did not stop because of this. Derek sat on the wheelchair and just as he was about to turn, he accidentally saw the woman standing alone at the table.

Her expression was desolate, the fireworks were billowing outside the window, and the colorful lights reflected off the woman's face like flowers.

"Go take a bath."

Ding Yiyi looked up in surprise. The sound of the wheelchair had already traveled far away.

The black Bentley moved slowly among the crowd. Ding Yiyi was leaning against the window, and in the middle of the separation zone, people were wearing strange clothing and had all kinds of strange makeup painted on their faces.
